  1. The only Cornucopia that I have that actually reacts...
  2. Like this one a bunch 👍
  3. I like popcorn too but I think I will lean towards Jabo also while I'm eating it
  4. I guess the way I meant too say that was how the machines in production cut the individual cards from the sheets, resulting in some being "off center". But you know what I meant 😊. I just felt better about being a little more clear about when and where the miscuts originally took place. I have my share of off center Topps baseball and football cards and love em. I kinda remember when these doctored cards started appearing. Trained eyes could spot them after a close examination. Actually, unless I personally knew the source, I don't think I would buy a card pre-1990 unless it was officially checked out and graded by an established grading service.
  5. Nice looking Rainbos that your putting out here 👍
  6. A common practice used on the old Topps borders as the machines didn't cut the sheets "perfectly" back in the day.
  7. I'm still "new" for the most part too marble collecting, having only been at for about a year and a half, so sadly, I never had the pleasure of becoming acquainted with Alan. That website however is one of my "go to" reference listings hands down so yes, a big thank you for keeping it going 👍
  8. Thanks Chad! I forgot about that link being here...I usually access it on phones homepage. Glad you stepped in because I didn't supply the link correctly anyway 😐
  9. It's SAD that people can still manipulate a sales platform and get away with crap like this. Hopefully consumers who haven't fallen into these traps educate themselves about future potential purchases before purchasing 👍
  10. Sometimes it wants to feel like a medieval torture device when lock those grey clamps down. There isn't any pain per say, but it's pretty damn tight! There isn't any getting out of it until they let you out. It messed with me psychologically the first couple days. After that, you pretty much make yourself focus on the music they play of your choice and try not to swallow. They start off by taking a fresh xray, about a 3 minute cycle. After that, it's the radiation. Each cycle (I get 3), lasts about a minute and a half, and there's about 2 minutes in between each one. I'm going to bed. Pooped. I decided to mow the front and middle yards after I got home, plus did some planting with Patty. Sleepy time 😴
  11. My "companion" for my treatments...
  12. Check out some of the images at Joe's website of the Spiderman variations and you'll see why Chad says "unusual"....definitely a cool marble 👍
  13. Yay, Happy Friday! Not counting today, I have 18 more treatments left. So far, the only side effects that I have noticed is a rash across my shoulders and at the top of my armpits. I told them in theory that I think the mask is behind this (it actually covers my shoulders also,imagine the villain Juggernaut's helmet if it were a few inches longer). After I examined it more closely on Wednesday, I think it is made from a liquid resin similar to what we use in the molding process while making softball bats. We injected the liquid resin, hot, with a gun by screwing the guns tip into the press the bats were in. This coated the composite material and kevlar. In liquid and solid form, some people had allergic reactions to this resin. These mesh sheets are premade for Gundersen Hospital. At the hospital, they get them really hot to soften them up so they can "mold" it by hand against your face, head, and shoulder areas. If I'm correct, I hope I gave the assist in treating or approaching others before or during their treatments 😊 I'll see if I can snap a picture of mine today after I'm done 👍
